#AfroChat I’m honestly very disappointed and upset right now. A lot of us traded in our love for our people for our so-called knowledge. Swipe to see what Nipsey Hussle had to say about his store, and why it was important to buy that specific property… If you don’t have love, your knowledge, your wealth, your words, and your accomplishments mean nothing. And while we’re only seeing waste and desolation when we look at our own people in these “hoods” and “ghettos”, white people are seeing what we all should be seeing, which is endless opportunity, endless potential.

“We are building for our last names,” Anthony Downing @therealdowning
Spent a few days with some like minds @thedowningbrothers all the way from Chicago.
Our missions align with empowering the community through real estate education and wealth building.
Had a great free event where free game was in abundance, as well as some powerful networking.
Special thanks to the team that helped it come together @districtartg @realtorporshae @thereal_adwright @pbjlife_ @joshuatdada
Striking shots of Northgate Mall, from the always fantastic @quiet.seattle. Since the #NorthgateMall that many of us know & love is vanishing/has vanished, I’m doing a few posts sharing the work of folks who’ve been documenting its history & last days. Share your old Northgate ❤️ & memories - and if you have any pix, feel free to send em my way! #Macys #Northgate #thebon #thebonmarche #bonmarche #northgatebon #nordstrom #Jcpenney #storeclosing #northseattle #mallsofseattle #malls #seattlehistory #demolition #gentrification #development #redevelopment #seattle #oldseattle #vanishingseattle

Such a special night (in another dress I made!)!!!
Honored to take home a first place award from the National Association of Black Journalists for my reporting on #gentrification in #Tampa. This award means so much because it recognized an important issue that goes underreported in cities across the nation.
Redeveloping cities are pushing Black and Brown people out of their neighborhoods in the name of progress, and few tell the story of why this happens and who it impacts. Gentrification doesn’t just happen. Cities create policies that set the stage.
I’m grateful to my station for allowing me to tell such a pressing story. And I’m grateful to my photographers, managers, and most importantly, to the people who made the story come alive.
@nabjofficial Is the only organization that uniquely recognizes work that impacts the black community. Thank you for this honor.
